A sophisticated strappy flat is hard to find, so when I saw these at Quince I was instantly taken.
Adina over at Blue Collar Red Lipstick has a similar pair that she thrifted years ago (if memory serves, she’s been wearing them for years) and I’m always jealous of them because they look sleek and fabulous. These ballet flats have a more square toe, but in general look great.
The shoes are $92 and come in black leather and merlot leather; they’re available in sizes 5-9.
(We’ve featured Adina in the best blogs for women law students because she (was? is?) a practicing lawyer, and she’s been kind enough to guest post here on microblading. We should update our list of the best personal style content featuring real working women — do you have any recent favorites, readers?)
